According to NBC Bay Area, Metallica frontman James Hetfield is among a group of stars supporting a plan to finance and construct a new stadium for the Oakland Raiders football franchise — a proposal that has been shepherded by NFL Hall-of-Famer Ronnie Lott.
"I fully support the Lott Group and Another Planet Entertainment in their pursuit of keeping the team here in the Bay Area," Hetfield said in a statement. "From the heart of a true lifelong Oakland Raider fan, this team needs Oakland, and Oakland needs the Raiders. You will not find a more loyal and intense fan base than the Oakland 'Raider Nation.' Do the right thing here and help each other to make it work."
